(Verse 1)
You say you need space, but you stay on my line
Call me at 2 just to waste all my time
I hear your voice and I melt every time
But I know better… I know better
You got a way of twisting my mind
Make me feel crazy for asking you why
You say you love me, then leave me behind
Boy, you reckless… so reckless
(Pre-Chorus)
I try to play it cool, don’t let it show
But you keep pulling me back, you already know
(Chorus)
I hate that I want you
Even when you do me wrong
I keep holding onto
Something that’s already gone
You touch me like you mean it
But you never stay too long
I hate that I want you
I hate that I want you
(Verse 2)
You post her up just to get a reaction
Act like I’m trippin’, say I’m just imagining
But I see everything, don’t gotta ask it
Yeah, I peep it… I peep it
You say I’m different, I’m not like the rest
But you still treat me like all of your exes
Give you my heart, you just leave it a mess
Still I keep it… why I keep it?
(Pre-Chorus)
I should be done, I should let you go
But you keep pulling me close, and I lose control
(Chorus)
I hate that I want you
Even when you do me wrong
I keep holding onto
Something that’s already gone
You touch me like you mean it
But you never stay too long
I hate that I want you
I hate that I want you
(Bridge)
If I leave, would you chase me?
Or just let me go?
If I needed you, would you save me?
Guess I’ll never know…
(Outro)
You only love me when I’m walking away
You only miss me when I don’t wanna stay
And I keep falling for the games that you play…
Yeah, I hate that I want you
